Hello Geoff

    Tried your examples on a 1 Million records file and got no errors as
long
    as i had Create/Delete Rights on the network

    Vdb creates a temporary file __QB000.... in the current working
directory

    in your example you say C:\mydir1 and c:\mydir2 ( both really on the
same pc ??? )
    ( mydir1 was probably on the network  )

    I put the MYFILE.DBF on another PC and let the sqlexec run

CD c:\temp
? SQLEXEC( "SELECT * FROM 'T:\TEMP\MyFile' WHERE Employee = '0001994'",
"NewFile" )

This created the NEWFILE.DBF in my c:\temp directory and printed 0 in the
command window
